Have you seen the new whipped coffee trend on your social media feeds yet? If you’re on Instagram or TikTok, chances are good you’ve scrolled past Dalgona coffee.

Since coffee is basically in its own food group for me, trying Dalgona coffee in many forms is high on my list.

Dalgona coffee might look fancy, but trust me that it’s so easy to make. You may even have everything you need to make it right away.

What is Dalgona Coffee?

Dalgona coffee or whipped coffee is a drink inspired by the Indian beverage, Phenti Hui coffee. The drink is made by whipping up instant coffee, sugar, and hot water until it creates a creamy foam topping to add to hot or cold milk.

Recipe Notes and FAQ

Can you make whipped coffee with regular coffee?

Yes, but it takes some work. Pour a scoop of coffee beans into a grinder or blender and grind them as finely as possible. After that, sift the grounds through a fine-mesh strainer. Use the fine powder that falls through the strainer to make whipped coffee. 

Why is my whipped coffee not whipping?

You’re not using enough whipped coffee. It’s difficult to whip small amounts of anything because you need enough to be able to effectively whip air into it. You can also try using a smaller container. 

Why isn’t my whipped coffee fluffy?

You probably didn’t use enough sugar. Sugar is what makes this coffee so light and fluffy. If you try to reduce the sugar, it will take longer to fluff up and it will collapse very easily. 

How long does it take to whip Dalgona coffee?

It usually takes about 3 or 4 minutes to whip up your coffee. 

What type of milk should I use in whipped coffee?

Use any type of milk or milk substitute you like. Almond milk, macadamia milk, or whatever you prefer should be equally as tasty.

Can I make flavored Dalgona coffee?

Flavor your Dalgona coffee with cocoa powder, vanilla extract, honey, cinnamon, and more. Get creative with the flavor combos!
